Reading Champions

9th March 2023Sophie Elmer

Last Friday, we started the first of many reading celebrations to come! Lots of children across school were awarded for reading at home. Teachers have been keeping a log of how many children have been reading each week and we really wanted to praise those children (and grown ups!) who have really made the effort to read at home every night! We also celebrated the Crew who have been reading the most at home and last week’s winners (for Week 1) was Crew MI! Well done to all of the fabulous readers! Keep up the great work! I wonder who our Reading Champions will be next week? Could it be you?!

Last week’s Reading Champions!

Story Telling in Crew Welburn

9th March 2023A Welburn

We’ve been looking at the story Jack and the Beanstalk in Crew Welburn today. We used our story language like ‘once upon a time’, ‘fee, fi, fo, fum’ and ‘they lived happily every after’ to retell the story using our props. We loved looking at the magic beans, growing the beanstalk and acting out the story using the characters!

Crew Godley super readers!

3rd March 2023Laura Godley

This week we’ve had a great week with so many children reading at home to their grown ups and siblings. The children have been so proud in academic crew sharing their reading scores with their peers. Today, those children who read three or four times this week received a ’get smart’ postcard because it shows they are most certainly getting smart when they can apply our phonics to read more fluently. Thomas, our little reading super star read five times, as he does every week! We thought this deserved a celebratory big bar of chocolate!

World Book day

World Book day was the perfect opportunity for us to spend some time in our lovely library. The children were able to get themselves comfortable and read their book. It also allowed myself and Mrs Rhodes to listen to children read.
